CodeSynthesis XSD Download
The XSD compiler is a relatively complex piece of software with
several dependencies. We therefore recommend that you use the provided
binary distribution packages if possible. They contain the XSD compiler
binaries for various platforms as well as the source code for the
runtime library and examples. The XSD runtime is a header-only library
and does not require compilation.
Note also that all the major Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu,
Fedora, RHEL) as well as add-on package managers (for example,
Homebrew) have XSD packaged and available from their official
repositories, though it may not be the most recent version (on some,
the package and/or the XSD compiler binary is
called xsdcxx instead of
xsd).
The XSD runtime library and generated code depend on
existing libraries for XML parsing. The C++/Tree mapping
can be used with
Xerces-C++
as the underlying XML parser and the C++/Parser mapping supports
Xerces-C++ and Expat.
Most Linux distributions provide binary packages for Xerces-C++ and
Expat in their official repositories while on other platforms add-on
package managers (Homebrew, vcpkg) can usually be used to obtain
both. We also provide binary packages for Xerces-C++ for some
platforms. See the binary package README files linked
below for the recommended way to obtain the underlying XML parser on
each platform.
